歌詞

Convenience store light buzzing at my back

Plastic bags flutter in the track

Traffic hissing like a broken wave

Every crosswalk feels like an unmarked grave

Faces in the glass doors blur and bend

Reflections I don’t really comprehend

If I stare too long I start to fade

Into all the copies that they made

I’m walking home under fluorescent rain

All the colors washed into the same

Under fluorescent rain I lose my name

But my heartbeat won’t agree to play that game

Billboards blinking like a faulty dream

Promises in silver, red, and green

Someone laughs and someone starts to cry

Both of them get swallowed by the sky

Every answer written on the wall

Peels away and leaves another call

If I listen close beneath the hum

I can hear a song I’m scared of becoming

I’m walking home under fluorescent rain

All the colors washed into the same

Under fluorescent rain I lose my name

But my heartbeat won’t agree to play that game

Maybe in this artificial day

I can overwrite the shades of gray

If I draw a line and step aside

Maybe I can keep my pulse alive

Every shadow stretched across the street

Marks the place where I refuse defeat

If I raise my eyes above the glow

Will I find a world I want to know?

I’m walking home under fluorescent rain

All the colors stained but not the same

Under fluorescent rain I keep my name

And my heartbeat never learns to play that game
